FRTAP forms part of the Swiss enlargement contribution to reduce economic and social disparities within the enlarged EU.
The information in this Terms of Reference (TOR) describe the objectives and requirements that the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (the World Bank, the Client) has in seeking a contractor to provide a Specialized English language training course for approximately 15 officials from the Ministry of Finance and other stakeholder institutions in Poland’s financial reporting system. There are also plans to organize a similar training for another group of 15 officials in 2012. However this will be covered by a separate assignment.
The expected result of the training course is to strengthen participants English language skills to equip them with the capacity to understand and communicate using concepts and terms that are specific to financial reporting. In particular, the course will induct participants to the key terms used in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Standards of Auditing (ISAs).
Details of the assignments can be found in the attached Terms of Reference.
Interested individual consultants or consultants designated by firms are asked to provide a CV and a cover letter with a proposed approach to email: iwarzecha@worldbank.org by April 17, 2011.
